Descrizione
Walk through ancient cave cities, UNESCO World Heritage sites and Cold War history
A journey through 3,000 years of Georgian history in a single day. Explore the ancient rock-hewn city of Uplistsikhe, unravel the controversial legacy of Stalin in Gori, and walk through Mtskheta — the ancient capital and spiritual heart of Georgia.
Few tours pack as much history into a single day as this one. Beginning with the spectacular clifftop Jvari Monastery — a UNESCO World Heritage Site dating from the 6th century — you'll be rewarded with a stunning panorama of the confluence of the Aragvi and Kura rivers and the ancient city of Mtskheta below.
Continue to Gori, the birthplace of Joseph Stalin, where the Stalin Museum offers a fascinating and often provocative look at the Soviet leader's life, complete with his original personal items, office, and armored personal railway carriage.
The archaeological highlight of the trip is Uplistsikhe, a remarkable rock-hewn city dating back to the early Iron Age.
